People judge too much by results. I'm just the opposite. I care about more than results. I'd rather make a good pitch and give up a bloop single than make a bad pitch and get an out.

If you are content with yourself, you'll stop taking those little steps forward and begin taking big steps backward.

I daydream just like everybody else. I just do it with my body facing the field, so everybody thinks I'm paying attention.

You're not going to win by automatically going out there. It's hard to know what people really expect of you, and I've never tried to live up to expectations anyway. That's no way to play baseball.

The dirt was OK, but once you hit the grass... Wet grass is slippery

I look forward to another good year next year. It would be nice to win, too.

The key to pitching is to have the ability to throw a strike when they're taking and throw a ball when the hitter is swinging.
